🎯 Use the Right Wire Gauge for the Job

🧵 Why?
Different gauges serve different purposes. Using the wrong one can lead to weak structures or stiff designs that are hard to shape.

📏 Quick Gauge Guide:

  • 20–22 Gauge: Great for frames and structural base

  • 26–30 Gauge: Ideal for weaving and fine detailing

  • 18 Gauge and thicker: For heavy-duty or bold designs

🌟 Bonus: Try mixing gauges to add depth and texture to your creations!
